A set of four hand-painted oval enamel plaques, each featuring an artistic representation of a female nude. The figures are depicted in various reclining or seated poses within impressionistic landscape settings, utilising a palette of flesh tones, greens, and blues with fluid black outlines. These convex vitreous enamel cabochons are finished with a high-gloss glaze. This style of work is often attributed to the Bohemian movement or Victorian era decorative arts. No maker marks or signatures are visible on the painted surfaces.
